Though he might be a firm Zidane favorite, Isco's position at Real Madrid is far from certain and with less than a month to go until the start of next season, the Spanish international is still not sure where he would ply his trade next term.

Having been named the 2012 Golden Boy, Isco arrived at Real Madrid with high expectations, but despite starring fleetingly, the 27-year-old has not done enough to justify the hype that surrounded his arrival.

Against Atletico, Isco was handed a start but was nothing more than a passenger as Koke and co totally dominated proceedings in midfield en route their 5-0 first half bashing.

Indeed, Isco's only meaningful contribution in the match was knocking Diego Costa over in the box at the death of the first half; an action for which he was penalized and shown a yellow card.

He arguably should have been sent in for an early shower, as the Spanish international was guilty of being too aggressive and making a number of unnecessary fouls but Atletico would not complain too much, as he could well have been absent, as his presence did not make any difference.
